English has never been shy to import words. And I would argue that 'barn raising' is an example of something similar (that is, it is implicit that the barn raising requires the neighbors help and happens in the community). I do not know Norweigian well enough, but in Denmark we have 'so' (meaning sow), which is not quite the same as 'slut' (it is basically the same as 'bitch') but in something that is only used against women. 'svin' (pig) would be a non-gendered insult. I guess the closest thing to slut would be 'luder' (lit whore), also a gendered insult.
